Invitrogen Alexa Fluor 680 dye is a bright, near-IR fluorescent dye with excitation ideally suited for the 633 nm laser line. For stable signal generation in imaging and flow cytometry, Alexa Fluor 680 dye is pH-insensitive over a wide molar range.
The fluorescence quantum yield and high photostability in antifade allow detection of low-abundance biological structures in fixed cells with great sensitivity. Alexa Fluor 680 dye molecules can be attached to proteins at high molar ratios without significant self-quenching, leading to brighter conjugates and more sensitive detection. The long wavelength emission allows for detection in complex samples with auto-fluorescent background signals.
We offer Alexa Fluor 680 dye conjugated to a variety of antibodies, peptides, proteins, tracers, and amplification substrates optimized for cellular labeling and detection. In addition, reactive dye forms and protein labeling kits are available to allow you to generate your own antibody conjugates or probes.

Golgi in fixed and permeabilized NIH 3T3 mouse fibroblast cells was labeled with green-fluorescent Invitrogen Alexa Fluor 488 conjugate of HPA lectin. Mitochondria were labeled with a primary antibody directed against OxPhos Complex V Inhibitor Protein and visualized using far-red-fluorescent Alexa Fluor 680 goat anti-mouse IgG. Filamentous actin was stained with red-orange–fluorescent Invitrogen Alexa Fluor 568 phalloidin. Nuclei were stained with blue-fluorescent DAPI.
